Ex-deputy attorney general seeks NACC seat to “clear his name”

[webfact]

 

Thailand’s former Deputy Attorney-General Nate Naksuk is asking society for a chance to prove that he can still be of value to the country by applying for a seat on the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC).

 

Nate is currently under investigation by a 7-member panel, set up by the Prosecution Commission, to consider serious disciplinary action against him for his controversial decision not to indict Red Bull heir Vorayuth “Boss” Yoovidhya over a fatal hit-and-run accident in which he and his Ferrari were involved.

 

The panel was given 60 days, from last October, to complete its investigation, but the deadline can be extended to 180 days.

A corrupt man vying for a seat on the NACC, this could not be more hilarious, and then extremely telling how corrupt even the NACC is if he was given a seat.

Does not understand the concept of "conflict of interest"?

Obviously did not study ethics either.

Why not? They had a convicted drug dealer as cabinet minister... and anything that reinforces the corrupt image of the NACC is a good thing in the end.

How about appointing any officials tied with slave labor to the anti human trafficking committee...

"Other qualifications include honesty, not being dismissed from government service and never having served prison time for corruption."

 

They'll be hard pressed to find many candidates with tough standards like those in place ????

You already proved your value... nuff said.

Is this the theory about poachers making the best gamekeepers?

After reading this, I am pretty sure that the problem has to do with understanding the meaning of Anti.

Then we'll no doubt see the previous deputy PM who served time (about 4 years) in Australia for drugs requesting (should read demaning) that his scaly past be removed from any records, probably with threats.

Well, investigated for not having indicted someone..... then he's perfectly qualified for the  NACC! ????
